Dear Friends,
The call of this time is a call for peace; becoming peaceful means seizing the reins of the out-of-control mind and bringing the runaway thoughts to a halt. It is not an empty mind that elicits a state of peace. To move into this state of profound silence, we must train the intellect to create pure and good thoughts. We must train it to concentrate. Our wasteful thoughts burden us. Our habits of creating too many thoughts and too many words exhaust the intellect. We must ask "How can I cultivate the habit of pure thoughts?"
I let go of all thoughts of discontentment and am reminded of my oldest, most intrinsic state of being. I remember this inner calm. Though I have not been here recently, I remember it as my most fundamental awareness, and a feeling of happiness and contentment wells up inside of me. In this state I know every soul to be my friend. I am my own friend. I am deeply quiet. I am silent and utterly at peace.
This deep well of peace is the original state of the soul. When I am in this state, I feel the flow of love for humanity and I feel a state more elevated than what I would normally call happiness, a state of bliss. It is when I attain this state that something truly miraculous can happen.
With love
BK Janki
the message from Dadi, and when you sit in meditation, practice experiencing
what is said, especially the last two paragraphs. Meditation is experienced through thought and
feelings, so when thinking these thoughts create the feelings that go with
them, this will create a shift in your consciousness, even if it is only
slightly to begin with, this practice will help and when your consciousness
changes your thoughts will change and so will your dreams and your actions. In your daily practical life create good and
positive thoughts that lead to good actions this again will feed into your consciousness.
Create the awareness that you have a
choice of what to think and what actions to take. Every step you take creates your life.
respectfully yours,
Charles

I have great respect and regard for Dadi Janki since 15th August, 1982 when I met her for the first time while she was addressing a congregation in United Nations Building New York City as a Director Overseas for the organisations. My hats off to her.
